Endothelial keratoplasty (EK) offers improved outcomes for corneal endothelial disease compared to traditional methods. Further research is needed to optimize implantation techniques and long-term results.

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Corneal Surgery
  • Transplantation Immunology

Context:

  • Corneal endothelial keratopathy treatment has evolved significantly.
  • Endothelial keratoplasty (EK) is increasingly replacing penetrating keratoplasty.
  • EK offers advantages in refractive outcomes and lower rejection rates.

Purpose:

  • To review the advancements and current status of Endothelial Keratoplasty (EK).
  • To highlight the benefits of EK over traditional corneal transplantation.
  • To identify areas for future research in EK procedures.

Summary:

  • EK involves replacing diseased corneal endothelium with donor tissue, preserving healthy corneal layers.
  • This technique has demonstrated superior results and favorable refractive outcomes compared to penetrating keratoplasty.
